I DIDN'T Ride My Bike Today, Cuzz....

I think he'd like the 34 x 19 i have for it

 

Lol, I dont even think Steve would like that!

 

I had a slice in the side wall. Dam a pretty new rear tire. Lucky me I had a new Butcher and now I can post in another place

 

We will try and keep you entertained.

 

I didn't ride today because it is ugly.

 

Rain out, I am stoked

 

Cuz it rained…

 

Cause I'm trying to find the leach lines from my septic tank. . . .

 

Dowsing rods work for locating pipes.

 

Didja ever wake up and piddle around, eat breakfast, and just not feel like it?

Me too!!!!

 

Vacation somewhere on the central coast.

 

On account of my little owwwwwie........

 

Today was opening day for the Cosmic Cafe on Mt Wilson. So, the wife and I drove up to enjoy some dogs and chilli.

 

'Tis but a scratch!

 

Ahem... (and I quote)

"Sucks to be you.

Man the 'eff up and go ride your bike."


(Granted, you were much nicer when you thought I really was injured...)

 

Maybe Saturday...I'm already a member of the 100 degree club. No renewals needed.

 

97 at the coast! Better day for surfing than riding. Most of the wax melted off during the drive to the beach.

 

Atta boy!

 

If things keep improving at the pace they have been, I'm hoping to be able to do meaningful rides again by earlyish summer.

This is what a "severely" (actual wording on the MRI report) narrowed cervical nerve root looks like:


The two discs above and below are bulging and herniated respectively, but currently asymptomatic. The doc wants me to figure out a much more upright riding position (than road, which is/was the majority of my volume) like on a trainer or stay off the bikes for one to two years. Sounds like a prescription for more mountain biking.

 

First - that dark spot looks ominous. That's a bad thing. Fix that.
Second - Any prescription to stop road riding is a good prescription in my book!

Good luck with managing all this. I feel ya!

 

You can road ride if you change your bars. Or at least rotate them up, but you need to be in touring style and save your back

 

I did not ride because it is Easter Sunday, and it is a family day with the children and grand children.

 

I'm not goint to ride today, even with my bike and gear in the car, the rain won't stop in time for the trails to dry out.
I guess riding Saturday or going to watch the locals race Keysville .....

 

I will not be riding my bike today I tore a retina. Might be off for awhile got to drive back home from the east. It has been a good time.

 

Yikes

 

ouch

 

Oh no! How does / did that happen?

 

Popped the bladder in the damper in the Fox 38, it was making noise over the last week or so. Figured it was something serious so I dropped it off to have it serviced by Collin at BikeHouse. Luckily Fox shipped the part today, so I should be back on the trails early next week.

 

I didn’t ride my bike today cuzz it’s 1500 miles away so I rode somebody else’s. Rides a lot like mine except for the moto brake setup.

 

Big ride. A lot more miles and elevation than your riding buddy. Strava likes you
